So as far as I understand my next step would be to set the pc to a static ip on my local network and on the router (bt home hub) use port forwarding to allow a wake signal to be sent over the internet and teamviewer to take over. The desktop that doesnt, has used ports 11, 12, 3 without success. I have been able to boot my home pc on my HOME INTERNAL network sending a magic packet and waking on LAN. using teamviewer I have create an account and added my laptop and desktop to the accounts to test the theory.my current aim is to use WOL to send a magic packet over the internet and wake the a pc on the network and therefore the harddrive via the pi. What are my options / best solutions in this case?īeen at work today so VERY limited time to play around with both teamviewer and my router etc etcĪnyway here is where I am and bear with me as im sure this sounds like junk to you experts as networking illudes me currently. I want to be able to do this Without them turning on their pc and having to log into teamviewer, so ideally log into the pi via it's ip address (therefore requiring a vpn? ) I currently CAN access the drive via teamviewer from my home and send files directly to their HDD The HDD I want to access is connected up to a raspberry pi via USB on their network I'm pretty sure a WD Cloud MYCloud drive would be ideal but I don't want to mess around with third party software and would ideally prefer to just hook directly in and send files over without relying on third parties in between. So set up port forwarding and then I'd get access to the pi via their BT HOME HUB (but I have to have a static ip first or something?) this is where I get lost really and want to know what are my best steps for this WITHOUT buying new hardware. 11,194 reviews TeamViewer Remote Easy connection with TeamViewer remote desktop Tech glitches examined and solved in an instant. Reading what I can find, the best method for this would be to create a VPN? ![]() To add to the confusion the HDD cannot just be plugged into the usb on the home hub as it wont stream content wirelessly fast enough to the PI due to the house layout. ![]() this makes my life so much easier to get content to the pi !!Īnyway there has to be a way to do this without getting them to turn their pc on, this would allow me to send files overnight and they could wake up rescan and boom new content with no effort on their part! I've only very recently started to mess around with networks and working remotly and disovered that using teamviewer I was able to send files from my house directly to the shared hard drive at my parents house and then they can rescan using the pi to access the files. It's a standard USB drive and hooked directly to the PI. In my parents house I have a HDD that is shared on the network that is filled with content that they access via a raspberry pi hooked up to the TV.
